Collapse Spry accordion panels

Is it possible to collapse the spry accordion panels when working in design view? I want to put more content on the page below the accordion, but it is obstructing my view of the rest of the page.

Spry Accordion Panels view incorrect in IE8

I have a page set up using both spry menu and spry accordion panels. The problem is that in FireFox and Chrome, the pages view as they should. However, in IE, the panels on the accordion spread and are open, it doesn't view as it should. The test page is here www.sbcvote.us/index1.html the source code is below. My initial guess is that I have an open or not closed tag somewhere?

I appreciate any help here, it really doesn't make sense to me, it did work for a few viewing in IE and I must have changed something by mistake?
Thanks again.

I added a set width to the accordion css and that solved the problem of the widget running across the page. The IE issue appears to be an ongoing issue with IE. If a viewer has IE8, then hitting the compatibility button on the menu bar will solve the viewing problem. If not, it doesn't view correctly. It views fine on other browsers (Chrome, etc). Problem is how many people will know to hit the compatibility button?
Thank you for your help, I appreciate the time taken.

Spry Accordion panels and Google search

Hello! I have about 30 pages with at least 15 spry accordion
panels on each. I've just implemented a local customized google
search and it looks like Google is able to pull pretty accurate
search on both the panels and panels content.
Once presented with the search results, can a user get to an
OPEN accordion panel, that relates to his search? I hope I've
explained it clearly, THanks!

Yes, this happens because all of the content is on the page.

I've seen some scripts that highlight Google search terms, so
I suppose that getting the search terms on the destination page is
possible, but making that leap to the proper panel to open may be a
little more difficult.
First you have to figure out which panel the words are
in,then you have to figure out what if the user is searching for
three terms and each of those terms is in a different panel, or if
only one term, and that term is in multiple panels? How would you
expect that work out?
You can highlight the words using code such as that discussed
on this page:
http://www.kryogenix.org/code/browser/searchhi/
I'd guess that someone could reverse that code that finds the
text and then take that find and then walk up the DOM tree to see
if you are within an accordion panel and then show that panel as
the default panel on the page.

Spry Accordion Panel Default State All Closed?

Is it possible to set a group of Spry accordion panels so
that all are closed by default?

Yes, a Google search for "Spry accordion all closed" brings
up this as

Spry Accordion Panel

hi guys,
i have a Spry accordion panel, in the first panel i have some
dynamic text and some dynamic images, when i open the other panel
below, this opens over the top of the first panel (like it should)
and the dynamic text is covered (like it should) however the images
stay visable in the same place as if the images are placed ontop of
the accordion panel. The images are in the first panel container
though and so should become hidden but don't.
<div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
<div class="AccordionPanel">
<div class="AccordionPanelTab">Genral Info</div>
<div class="AccordionPanelContent" id="accordcontent">
<p>Username: <?php echo $row_rsFull['UserName'];
?> </p>
<p>Name: <?php echo $row_rsFull['Forename']; ?>
<?php echo $row_rsFull['Surname']; ?></p>
<p>Date Of Birth: <?php echo
$row_rsFull['DateOfBirth']; ?></p>
<p>University: <?php echo
$row_rsFull['University']; ?></p>
<p>Project Name : <?php echo $row_rsFull['pName'];
?></p>
<p>Project Description: <?php echo
$row_rsFull['pDescription']; ?></p>
<p><img src="<?php echo $row_rsFull['pImage1'];
?>" alt="image 1" class="bottomimage" /><img src="<?php
echo $row_rsFull['pImage2']; ?>" alt="image 2"
class="bottomimage2" /></p>
</div>
</div>
Any Suggestions?

That would be very easy, just remove the tabindex attribute
of the top level div of the accordion. However keyboard navigation
will not work at that moment. The dotted line is a browswer
specific visualisation to show that the specific item is selected
using the tabindex.
You could also add the following style to your page
div:active,
div:focus,
div:hover
outline-style: none; -moz-outline-style:none;
Then none of the div items with a tabindex get an surrounding
border.

Sorting Spry Accordion panels?- Repost

I posted this question on 5/20 but did not get any replies,
so I am reposting in hopes that someone might have an answer.
Can Spry accordion panels be dynamically sorted the same way
that regular Spry tables can? I created a Spry Accordion with a
book title on each panel. When you click on a panel, a table
appears (dynamically generated from an XML database using a Perl
script) showing author name, publisher, date of publication, etc.
I'd like users to be able to alphabetize the book titles in case
they're not already in alphabetical order. I'd also like to add a
link on (or near) the panels to sort them by date of publication,
even though the date field is not visible when the panels are
closed.
Thanks!

I couldn't tell from your post if you were generating the
markup for your Accordion using regions and data sets. If you are,
then you are probably doing something similar to:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/accordion/AccordionSample2.html
In which case, you can cause the panels to sort by simply
sorting the data set:
<a href="#" onclick="dsEmployees.sort('firstname'); return
false;">Sort by FirstName</a>
<a href="#" onclick="dsEmployees.sort('lastname'); return
false;">Sort by Last Name</a>

Strange issue with Spry Accordion Panels

Hi, I'm having some strange issues with the Spry Accordion
Panels.
Here is the page:
http://www.bellaclientcenter.com/browncollege/aboutus.html
For some reason when I preview this message it adds extra
characters to the url above, so just delete those off to see the
correct url.
The only browser this does NOT happen in is safari, I'm
seeing it all of my other browsers. You'll notice when you first
load up the page, you'll see that the active panel header
background is green, and the non active is a dark grey. But when
you click one of the other panels they all turn a strange neon blue
color. This is very apparent in firefox.
Any thoughts on this? I've attached the spry css code in case
the problem is there.
thanks so much!!
Jeff

That is because your page is currently invalid. And renders in IE quirksmode..
<base href="http://www.industrialwebsearch.com/">
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
So make sure your page is valid, and the animations will go smooth in ie

.js update of spry accordion panel tab data for countdown functionality

Hi,
First off I must say I really love the work done on CS3 and
the Spry Framework - loads of examples and nicely implemented!
Questions in a nutshell:
Can I change spry generated data on the fly so I can run a
.js counter function to dynamically update accordion panel data?
What event do I look for to fire a .js init function to see my new
spry widget (onPostLoad isn't working for me, but I'm a newbie!)?
* spry accordion
* {expire} dataset data is SQL DATETIME
* js countdown function CD_Init() searches DOM for specific
element IDs 'countdownN' and uses innerHTML to update counter at
specific interval
* observer onPostLoad seems to be calling CD_Init before
accordion DOM is loaded.
Verbose questions:
I am trying to tweek the output of a Spry Acoordion and
wanted to add a third party js counter to my accordion panel tab
and am having a bit of difficulty. The js code uses an innerHTML
statement to keep the counter going and supports multiple counters
(which I need to use one counter per tab). I build the multiple
counter id from the ds_RowID field which is where the parent div
element where the js changes the innerHTML. Can I do this? The .js
searches for elements w/ an ID of "countdownN", N = instance # and
a date format of '2007-09-08 00:00:00 GMT+00:00' and updates the
div's text with the countdown time. My {expire} record below is an
SQL DATETIME which is the correct format for this countdown.js
function (with the GMT-05:00 appended).
The relavant code is:
<div id="specialDisplay" spry:region="dsSpecials">
<h3>Click on a special below from our <em>LIVE
FEED</em> to see all the up-to-the-moment
exciting packages available!</h3>
<div id="AccordionSpecials" class="Accordion">
<div class="AccordionPanel" spry:repeat="dsSpecials">
<div class="AccordionPanelTab"
onclick="dsSpecials.setCurrentRowNumber('{dsSpecials::ds_RowID}')"
spry:hover="AccordionPanelLabelHover"><?php echo '<div
id="countdown' .'{ds_RowID}'. '">';?>{expire}
GMT-05:00</div>{dsSpecials::name}</div> 
<div class="AccordionPanelContent">
<div spry:state="loading"><img
src="./i/ajax-loader.gif"/></div> 
<div spry:state="error"><span spry:content="Error
loading data..."></span></div> 
<div id="details" spry:state="ready"
spry:content="{detail}"></div> 
</div> 
</div> 
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
</div> 
</div> 
I got the nice countdown.js script from
http://andrewu.co.uk/clj/countdown/
which allows N # of counters/page. I have updated this code to
start checking for a zero based index that I generate utilizing the
spry ds_RowID.
I have added an observer to run the countdown's
initialization function (to hopefully find all the "countdownN"
element instances) under my dataset declarations:
var observer = { onPostUpdate: function(notifier, data) {
CD_Init() ; } };
Spry.Data.Region.addObserver("AccordionSpecials", observer);
Also tried to add the observer to a div surrounding the
according w/ the "spry:region" specified.
But, alas, I see the correct expire instance in my tab, but
it looks like the counter is only firing before the actual data is
loaded (i.e. I used FF's webdeveloper and set a break on the
CD_Init function and it's breaking before the actual accordion is
there - I see the dataset placeholders in my window for the
accordion. When I continue, the accordion is generated, but my
countdown isn't working because it looks to be firing before the
DOM is updated w/ the accordion elements.
Sorry for the long speil; I'm really a .js neophyte and just
starting w/ spry - so I'm not even sure if I can/should change the
HTML generated from spry. If not, is there anyway that I can have a
countdown timer for each accordion's tab panel's associated
{expire} data field? Any ideas and suggestions are greatly
appreciated!!
Thank you also for this forum - some great gems for
development here!

Sorry - the previous post is way too long.
Is it possible to tie in a javascript update function (a
counter update) to an element generated by a spry widget (a dataset
value that generates spry accordion tab text) so that the accordion
tab gets updated by the javascript function running under a
setinterval?
I've tried firing the javascript init function with an
observer on the accordion's onPostUpdate event, but it's getting
fired before the spry data is loaded. Is this something that's
possible? Sorry for my lack of javascript expertise! Relying on the
real experts here!
Thanks for any advice/pointers.

Spry Accordion Panels - Individual Colors

Hi and Thanks in advance.
How do I go about individually coloring each panel in Spry Accordion Widget. I check the CSS but it seems to be directed at the "whole" Spry Accordion and I would like each panel to have a different color. Is that possible?
Regards
Glen

Certainly. Apply a unique ID to each panel in the accordion and set a color for each in the CSS file:
This is what I added to the css file:
.AccordionPanelContent {
    overflow: auto;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 0px;
    height: 200px;
.AccordionPanelContent#content1 {
    background-color: red;
.AccordionPanelContent#content2 {
    background-color: yellow;
And this is what the html now looks like:
<div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
<div class="AccordionPanel">
    <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
    <div class="AccordionPanelContent" id="content1">Content 1</div>
</div>
<div class="AccordionPanel">
    <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 2</div>
    <div class="AccordionPanelContent" id="content2">Content 2</div>
</div>
</div>
You can do the same with the tabs. If you apply the IDs to the div class="AccordionPanel", you will also affect the tabs. In that case, leave off the .AccordionPanelContent in the style selector and insert .AccordionPanel#content1, for example.

Help tweaking Spry accordion panel code!

Hello all,
I'm currently working on an information portal for a client and am having trouble with creating code to open a specific accordion panel on another html page without messing up the code so that the accordion panels have adjustable heights based on content.
The website has an Interactive Map page, which has some tooltips that have links to the Nurseries page. The Nurseries page has accordion panels with nursery entries ordered by province; anchor links were added to nursery entries that are linked to the Map page. In theory, when a user clicks on a "Click here for information" link on the Map page, the Nurseries page will load and automatically open the exact panel where the entry is housed with the exact entry showing at the top of the browser window. So I tested it out and it works exactly as I want it to, HOWEVER, the adjustable height feature that I added to the accordion panels on the Nurseries page now no longer works (now there are scrollbars on the right if the height exceeds the default height), AND all the panels by default are open instead of closed!
Here is the pertinent code that I am using on the NURSERIES page:
<script src="../SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.js" type="text/javascript"></ script>
<link href="../SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="SpryAssets/SpryURLUtils.js"></ script>
<script type="text/javascript"> var params = Spry.Utils.getLocationParamsAsObject(); </script>
<script type="text/javascript"> var Accordion1 = new Spry.Widget.Accordion("Accordion1", { useFixedPanelHeights: false, defaultPanel: params.panel ? params.panel: 0 });
</script>
This is the code I added to one of the tooltips on the MAP page:
<a href="nurseries.html?panel=9#mangatarem" title="Go to native species nursery listing" target="_blank">
What do I need to do in order for this to work? I tried reordering the code to read { defaultPanel: params.panel ? params.panel:
0, useFixedPanelHeights: false } and even tried combining the two { useFixedPanelHeights: params.panel ? true: false } but nothing worked. Any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance for your assistance!!

Notes:
Apart from the 14 errors created by the table elements and their style rules, the above document is HTML5 validated.
The panels count include the <span>'s so that panel 0 is Luzon and panel 1 is the first accordion panel
Because the <span>'s are part of the accordion, they take on the accordion style rules so that you will have to tweak them.
I hope this helps.

Spry accordion panel not lining up with top of viewport in FF3.5

I have created a new web page using spry accordion for the first time on my site. In IE8 all works perfectly - opening and closing and moving between tabs is smoothly done. My first tab opens a very long panel (way over the web browser's height), and scrolling down through the text brings us to the second tab. I disabled fixed panel heights - these expand fully when the relevent header is clicked. Clicking the second tab in IE8 closes the first panel smoothly, opens the second panel smoothly and leaves the browser sitting so the 2nd tab is in line with the top of the browser window. Perfect!
In FF3.5, following the same routine, with the first panel open, and scrolling down to the 2nd tab - click this and it closes/opens the panels, but is very jerky doing this and you are left with the browser window looking at the very bottom of the web page, instead of at the top of the panel.
I'd appreciate any advice on this before I give up and move to JQuery. Is this a bug?
**UPDATE** I tried Jquery and the results are worse! It doesnt even line up in IE8.
Please feel free to check out the code here:

Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks, Paul A

so take an anchor at the begining of the Accordian panle, link the <a> tag to the anchor point.
<script type="text/javascript">
function goToAnchor() {
location.href = "#unilist";
</script>
paste this script in <head> tag.
<a name="unilist" id="unilist"></a> // add an anchor tag before the accordion panel.
                  <div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion">
                    <div class="AccordionPanel">
                      <div class="AccordionPanelTab" ><a onclick="goToAnchor();"> University, Ohio*</a></div>
                      <div class="AccordionPanelContent">content</div></div>
<div class="AccordionPanel">
                      <div class="AccordionPanelTab" ><a onclick="goToAnchor();"> University, oiowa*</a></div>

Closing Spry Accordion Panels

Hi, i use Spry Accordion for this site:
dailycast.de
I want to close a open panel by clicking on these panel?
Here is my Code:
CODE
I found a tutorial on adobe Labs, but i dont understand this
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/accordion/AccordionSample.html#Programatic OpenAndClose
Thanks for helping me, and sorry about my bad english!

Hello SpryRookie,
If you look at the code of your page you will find the
constructor of your accordion. (var .. = new Spry.Widget.Accordion(
You can add options in the constructor.
var .. = new
Spry.Widget.Accordion('id-of-the-element',{options});
To have it closed you need to set the defaultPanel option to
a negative value, and useFixedPanelHeights to false.
So you new constructor should look like:
var variablename = new
Spry.Widget.Accordion('id-element',{useFixedPanelHeights: false,
defaultPanel: -1 });
save, reload the page and it should work.
@ausm94 you can download the complete Spry package including
all samples and API from adobe labs:

How to Add the Dynamic List Wizard Form to a Spry Accordion Panel?

Is it possible to add ADDT Dynamic Forms to the Spry Widgets?
- I have been trying to add the Dynamic List Wizard to my existing Accordion but everytime I do, the Accordion turns into plain text?
-Also, If it is possible then how do I target the Panels and have the detail record open up in Panel number 2?
I plan on having the ADDT Dynamic Form in Panel 1, and want the Add, Edit, New, Delete form to open up in Panel 2.
Thanks for your help,
jlig

I figured this out.
1) First add all the Fields to the Form using the ADDT Insert Record Form Wizard.
2) View the ADDT form in the browser to make sure the fields all display.
3) In DW design view, move the cursor just to the left of the ADDT Form and hit Enter to Add a line just above the ADDT Table.
4) With the cursor below the Red Form line and just above the ADDT table add the SPRY widget. (ex..Tabs)
5) Now highlight the rows you want to move & hit Cut, then open up Tab1, highlight Content1 and hit Paste.
I decide to leave my date_added, modified_By & date_modified fields below the SPRY tab widget so that these fields are visible all the time. When I click on the Insert button, the record was added correctly to my Table after Validation passed.
Thanks,
jlig

Spry Accordion default panel in Master Detail Page

Hi everyone,
First time post and need a little help.
I created a SQL database and put the recordsets in a spry accordion panel as the master section. I have another spry accordion that is my detail section. When I open up the panels in the master section and click on any of the records, it updates the detail region just fine. I did this by passing the record set using php which I don't know, to the detail region. So far, great.
What I now need to do is when I open a panel, I want that panel to stay open. This dosen't seem to work regardless what I do. I believe that in passing the recordset set between the two regions, it is refreshing the page. I tried using code to pass the panel number too but this is not working.
Here is the an example of one of the panels.
<div class="AccordionPanel">
    <div class="AccordionPanelTab"><h3>Doctor Who</h3></div>
    <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
        <table width="385" border="0" class="AccordionPanel" id="content1">
          <?php do { ?>
            <tr>
            <td >
               <a id="content1" href="?recordID=<?php echo $row_Doctor_Who['prod_key_name']; ?>&panel=1"; > <?php echo $row_Doctor_Who['video_name']; ?></a>
               </td>
            </tr>
            <?php } while ($row_Doctor_Who = mysql_fetch_assoc($Doctor_Who)); ?>
        </table>
    </div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
If someone can give me some pointers that would be great. I was also thinking of redoing my menus so when a user clicks on an entry, it will open up another page with that panel open or even going to another section of the same page. I'm not a php programmer and taken a beginners class in HTML and Javascript so if you can keep things simple that would be great.
Thanks soo much for helping out if you can!

PHP, being a serverside code, will refresh the page each time there is a request made to the server. JavaScript (and Spry), being a client side code, does not have to send requests to the server and therefore allows you to change the data without a page refresh.
Having said that, you need to have a Spry dataset in your Accordion panel.
By following these steps, you will be well on your way to achieving what you want.
Retrieve your data using PHP and place it in an HTML-table or similar outside of the Accordion panel
Create a SpryHTMLDataSet based on the HTML-table
Use the data from the Spry dataset to create a master/detail region in your Accordion panel
Just a few questions before I go into details.
Have you set up a connection to a database, thus be able to retrieve the data?
Why do you need an Accordion panel to show your data?
Have you got an online URL so that we can follow your code? Otherwise please include your code in your post.
Please come back here with your answers and we shall try to help you on your way
